50 Years of Pride
For nearly five decades, iPride Softball has created spaces where LGBTQIA2S+ athletes and allies can compete, connect, and belong. The 50 Years of Pride campaign honors the individuals whose courage, leadership, friendship, and love of the game helped shape our history.
Each week, we'll share a new story from across our community as we journey toward the 50th Anniversary Gay Softball World Series.
50 Years of iPride
Every Story Matters
The history of iPride Softball was not built by one person, one city, or one tournament.
It was built by thousands of players, volunteers, commissioners, advocates, scorekeepers, sponsors, friends, and chosen family members who showed up year after year.
The 50 Years of Pride Story Project captures these voices and preserves them for future generations.
Together, these stories reveal how softball became more than a game. It became community.
